## Abstract The incidence of metastasis of xenogeneic tumors transplanted to nude mice is controversial. We studied 106 malignant human tumor lines in a total of 1,045 nude mice, and observed metastasis in only 14 instances (1.3%), involving 11 different tumor lines. Three of the lines showed repea

## Abstract Human hematopoietic cell lines, which had been classified on the basis of studies on clonality, and morphological, chromosomal and functional parameters as lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL) of presumed nonβneoplastic origin, and lymphoma, myeloma and leukemia lines of proven malignant ori
Congenitally athymic nude (nu/nu) mice have been used extensively as hosts to study the metastatic properties of xenografted human tumors. It has not been fully explored to what extent the metastatic behavior of human tumor xenografts reflects the intrinsic properties of the tumor cells and to what
This study assessed the residual immunity possessed by NCr/Sed (nu/nu) athymic nude mice and examined strategies to reduce it in order to enhance the transplantability of human tumors for experimentation. Adult (8-week-old) female mice had fewer T cells (I I%) and more B and N K (asialo-GM,-positive
